HubL not parsed in RSS API response

SOLVE

Hi, I'm trying to export my blog and was using the API to get the posts. From what I can see, there are 6 separate endpoints to get the post body:

post_body
rss_body
post_body (2)
post_body_rss
post_rss_content
rss_body (2)

We have CTAs in all our blog post bodies, and it makes sense that the post_body show HubL, especially from within the platform, but it seems strange none of these have a HubL - parsed post body.

It would definitely make sense for one of these to show the final body as the rss.xml feed does:

https://site.com/blog/rss.xml

I can write my own parser and import that way, but before I go down that road I wanted to check if HubSpot had a way to get the final post body of these +900 posts without needing to do that.

Example response https://api.hubapi.com/content/api/v2/blog-posts?hapikey=11111&limit=1

Hey @John_Lamb, you're referring to the fact that CTAs aren't parsed as in they show up as HubL ({{cta('fa9b0f2b-3455-4cd3-975d-77d367c90fc3')}}) right? If so, I'm not aware of any way to parse these automatically. It would be a good enhancement to the APIs, so I'm going to raise this internally. I'd recommend posting in the ideas forum too: https://community.hubspot.com/t5/custom/page/page-id/ideaslandingpage, but I'll see what the team says. If I remember correctly, we should v3 content endpoints coming out soon.

@jlamb2 I run into same problem like you did, do you mind to share your knowledge about this tool? because as far as I know there is no API for CTA so I'm not really sure how to translate/parse the CTA into HTML.
